Jeff, those EER numbers are off a bit. 1:1 COP=3.41 EER, since 1 Kw=3412 btu. A COP of 4-5 would be to 13.6-17 EER. An EER of 30 would be a COP of 8.8. Doable, but very lofty. Were they getting SEERs of 25-30 instead?

Sam, if you are unfamiliar with any of the terms we are describing, shout out if you can't find your answer after searching.
